This is the view from the middle of Drift Creek, Oregon, with my back to Drift Creek Falls. It’s a beautiful place, whichever direction you face.
I liked the first version of this painting so much that I’ve done it again. This version is watercolor only with no gouache. It’s also reversed right to left and cropped a little differently. I’m not sure which version I like best. The first version is here: https://dancingfeatherstudio.com/blog/2022/12/22/windowonthepacific/
These gnarled trees frame the view on the trail to Fisherman’s Rock, just north of Lincoln City Oregon.
This inky iguana has the Aztec calendar engraved on his scales.
I’ve become addicted to making little Zen Tangles of late. The beauty is in the details.
I did a few sketches of animals with dangling holiday lights for The Lunaria gallery in Silverton, Oregon. Two of the first three sold immediately so I did three more. All five are now at The Lunaria thorough the end of December.
More scenes from along Skyline Trail in Salem. Oregon.
Another surreal pen and ink drawing. This night owl isn’t a party animal. He is the bringer of the night. He carries it under his wing. But be carful–he may sell you the moon.
A my husband cresting a hilltop at Joryville Park, Marion County, Oregon. It’s all about the light, of course.
A rocky landing along the Willamette River, in Independence, Oregon.
I find the moss covered trees in the Northwest mysterious and intriguing.
Long fingers of shadow stretch out from the hedgerow trees in the fields topping Joryville Hill, Marion County, Oregon.
Like most of my surreal drawings, the title of this little piece came first. It’s only after I’d played around with the possibilities for awhile that this little hedgehog came to have ink squirting out of his fountain pens.
